Emeghara plays down link to Fiorentina

Swiss – Nigerian attacker Innocent Emeghara has reacted to reports linking him with a shift to Fiorentina.

The ex-Livorno and Siena man has claimed that there has not been any contact with the leadership of the Serie A side regarding a deal .

“I know nothing, I cannot say anything. Now there are so many teams with which I am in contact.

“Would I like Fiorentina? Sure, it’s a great team, Florence is a beautiful city, but now I cannot say anything. Rossi is a great player, I’m sorry for what happened to him,” Tuttomercatoweb citing Radio Blu quoted Emeghara as saying.

The free agent is reportedly on the radar of two other Italian clubs – Cesena and Inter Milan – plus English teams Newcastle United, Sunderland, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United.
